View 2 RepliesI'm trying to get a Browse Directory dialog to update a text box with the path selected. I had it working fine in Unicode build but now using TCHAR - I see the variable contains the correct path, but the textbox only gets updated with a single weird character.
setting the text checking WM_COMMAND vars-
Code:
SetWindowText(textBox2,&buttonPush(hWnd));
browse function when Browse button is pressed -
Code:

View 9 Replies View RelatedRight now, I have and application that opens a multi file dialog box. I want to take all of the files I highlight when the dialog box shows up and display a messsage box with the path and file names. This is what I have right now:
Code:
private: System::Void button1_Click_1(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^ e) {
String^ folderName;
Stream^ myStream;
OpenFileDialog^ openFileDialog1 = gcnew OpenFileDialog;
openFileDialog1->Multiselect = true;

Currently, it only shows the first file that I choose. I want to make it so that the message box shows all of the files that I select when the open file dialog shows up.
I want write my first application using Xamarin Studio and GTK#.
I create new file Dialog.cs: public partial class Dialog : Gtk.Dialog
I add Fixed container and can't add buttons, why?
I must use class Window : Gtk.Window instead of Dialog and show modal this window?
I've created a modeless dialog from my main dialog as follows:
Code:
m_pContainerDlg = new CDlgContainer(NULL, this);
m_pContainerDlg->Create(CDlgContainer::IDD, GetDesktopWindow());
m_pContainerDlg ->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
This container dialog creates a child dialog which I show inside the container
Code:
BOOL CDlgContainer::OnInitDialog(){
// Create the child dialog and show it
m_pChildDlg = new CChildDlg(this);
m_pChildDlg->Create(IDD_DIRECTORY_DIALOG, this);
return FALSE;
}
From my child dialog I then create a modal dialog when a user clicks on a button
Code:
CChildDlg:: CChildDlg (CWnd* pParent /*=NULL*/) :
m_pParent((CDlgContainer*)pParent), {
} void CChildDlg::OnBnClickedBtn() {
CMyDlg MyDlg;
INT_PTR iResult = MyDlg.DoModal(pParent);
}
My problem is that the CMyDlg is modal but to the main dialog and not to the container or the child dialog.
What I want is simple: I want to catch a dialog box!
The dialog box pops very frequently in a website. We have to put a username and password and press OK. I checked with spy++. It doesn't have any child windows. So catching the dialog box with windows API is ruled out. It must be a HTML dialog. I have to get DOM COM interfaces of the dialog.
Another option may be to make an add-on to get the interface to IWebBrowser2 and get the events fired. The title of the dialog box is "Authentication Required". If the events will be fired for that dialog box, I can check the title using IHTMLDocument2::get_Title.But will the events be fired for HTML dialog box? How to catch that desturbing dialog box.
How can I create a dialog as a DLL ? I have a SDI MFC app (CView is based on CFormView) and from a button I want to load a modal dialog, but that dialog must be developed as DLL ... I didn't find something that fit my needs on internet ... P.S. I have only VC6 !
View 14 Replies View RelatedFor a project I'm working on, I need to be able to download a file from an FTP server and store it to a predetermined location with a predetermined name. No user interaction should be needed. Because the file is rather large, and I need the main program to remain responsive, this is going to need a progress dialog.
I could write all this myself and use the MFC wininet wrappers (CInternetSession et al) to do the downloading, but... Explorer already has this, and IE has such a dialog also. It doesn't seem unreasonable to assume those dialogs are available via some API.
Is a "FTP download with dialog" available as a windows API, or do I really need to write all this myself ?

I think it is not dependent on gtkmm because thread 2 is blocked where as the parent thread is running which is causing the problem.
Here's what I want to do:
So, basically the user imports a list of strings from a CSV file and the lines get read line by line and sorted in a listbox. If the user uploads the same file again that contains the same list of strings, a confirmation box with the following is supposed to be displayed:
"The list is the same. Are you sure you want to import this list of strings?" The options are yes, no, maybe.
If the user clicks on yes, all the strings get saved/put into the listbox regardless of whether or not they are repeated. No allows the user to to cancel the whole operation and return back to the screen for all samples. Maybe allows the user to individually pick which one they want saved or not. Maybe takes the user to a yes or no confirmation dialog box and it loops through all the strings in the csv file until the user has picked yes (accept) or no (deny). Only the confirmation box with yes and no should be looping.
What I have so far:
-Two confirmation boxes (I decided it would be easier for me to create two views and two viewmodels just for confirmation box setup - one with confirmation box of yes/no/maybe and one with confirmation box of yes/no).
-All the event handling is set and done.
-Reading the CSV file and checking for duplicates.
What I have problems with:
-When the call the confirmation dialogs...
Here's a snippet of what I have:
public void ReadImportedSamples(string filePath)
{
string line;
try
{
using (DDataContext context = new DDataContext())
{
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(filePath))
{
[Code]...
So, I have two confirmation boxes, confirmationWindowSamplesListYN (only yes and no) and confirmWindowForSamplesList (with maybe).
Everything is set up fine. I am just wondering when the call the proper confirmation dialogs so that I can get the behavior above?
I was wondering how can we know how many items exist in a dialogbox? If there any way that i can get the items ID in a dialogbox by having just the dialogbox's object or handler? Or any way that we can get a dialogbox content by coding.

I have handled VScroll and HScroll. It works fine for higher resolutions!
Normally, menu bar resides below the title bar. See attachment MenuBarOriginal.JPG
Is there a way that we can position the menu bar? For example,place it on the side or anywhere on the dialog box?

I need to pass a variable to a dialog box.
Code:

int input = dlg.DoModal();
When I call dlg.DoModal() I need to somehow pass the pDoc into the dialog box. Everything I need the variable for is taking place inside the oninitdialog function. Is there anyway to pass the variable to that function?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a ListCtrl on my dailog. It has a report view. In my case I have selected first row with left click of mouse and entire row is displayed in blue color as selection (as per expected) and when I right click the second row of the listctrl it displays the menu which I have added to it and the selection remains with the first row.(as expected). I have already overridden the ListCtrl class.
I want that on the right click of second row the selection should remain with the first row but this second row also should be displayed with dotted line border.
I want to make a programs which creates a dialog box and shows it to the user. The dialog box should not be pre-loaded, here's an example:

I'm using windows forms and I have a parent dialog box that consists of a text box and a drop-down that launches a child dialog box. The child takes user input and then prints dialog to the text box in the parent. However, the output does not appear in the text box until I close the child.
Now my question is, how do I get the text to appear without closing the child? I hit a button to send the info to the text box, but it still doesn't appear until the child closes. I also need to set up a button to suspend the child so that the user can click/copy/etc the parent.
i open child dialog from a dialog( which is launched from a toolbar of a window) after editing i close the child dialog, after closing child dialog shadow is retained on window but not on the parent dialog. Later when i close the parent dialog the child dialog shadow disappears. (issue exist only when i edit in child dialog)

I have a slider control on a dialog box. I am playing a video file and slider moves according to the video elapsed. Suppose I have set the slider range to 100. Now till some point say 90, the slider moves to the point wherever I click the mouse. but at the last point in between some range say 90 - 100 (to the end of the slider), if I click the mouse button anywhere, slider jumps to the end.
I am using a TimeLine control where user can add more than 1 video (1, 2, 4, 8, 10 , 50 etc......), If I use only one video, slider moves as per the video progression.....Issue arises when I add more than 1 video and click on the start button, slider starts moving....Now when I drag the slider to any position or I click the mouse button anywhere on the slider control, slider thumb moves to that position and immediately jumps back to some other position. This is the Issue, I am facing.
share some sample code where slider is moving with the video showing the progress of the video.
I want to implement a functionality similar to VLC player. Wherever user clicks the mouse, slider moves to that point.
If it is possible, I'd like to know how to intercept messages sent to controls on a dialog. I'm working on a large application with a large number of dialogs, each with a number of controls on the dialog. I need to be able to intercept messages sent to these controls so that I can determine if the controls really need to take action on these messages. I could subclass each control and override the specific event handlers but due to the volume of controls in the application this could take a very long time, will introduce risk if controls are missed, and will increase maintenance costs. What I want to do is create a class which is derived from CDialog and each of the dialogs in the application would then be derived from this new dialog class. The new dialog class would intercept messages sent to any control on the dialog and if the dialog decides that the control should do something then the dialog will pass the message on to the control.
example:
CExistingDialog is derived from CNewDialog is derived from CDialog
CExistingDialog has a number of controls. When the code in CExistingDialog calls CWnd::EnableWindow on one of these controls I want CNewDialog to intercept the message, determine what should be done with the message, and then pass it on to the control.
I'm not very familiar with the messaging framework. I've tried overriding a few of the methods of CNewDialog but none of them ever receive the message to enable the window. I assume this is because the message is sent directly to the child window (the control).
Is there any way to intercept these messages? I don't know much about hooks either but is this a possible option?
